Konqueror has a protocol called FISH whiich uses SSH using it involves 
typing fish:// followed by the ip of the machine in question. It allows 
secure browsing of the remote machines file structure as if it is 
locally mounted. The connection starts and a dialogue box asks for a 
valid user name and password.

Might be of some use!
